Inwards or Outwards
The rhythm of switching between our thought going inward or outward makes the choice to change directions, difficult to make. We can only do one or the other at the same time. The pressure that has had society driving us inward is now forcing change for us. To me, this is the cycle between these two opposites, as one leads to the other eventually, like the yin turns into yang. I am certain that I have just gone full circle from inwards to now seeking the outward journey.
The schools, our homes, our offices, our malls; is a seeming addiction to the architecture of the square that has us all trapped in our mind to believe in box thinking and living. Multi-dimensional square thinking from square living with logic and reason being our own guiding thinking to justify such behaviour.
In this inward journey, we have learnt the art of keeping a journal, writing a blog; if we wish to leave some kind of legacy of being. What we write about in a generalized way, is a make believe world of illusion and fantasy. We even get to eat our choice of flavoured buttered popcorn while sitting in our own favourite box office seat at home. In this seat, we are fed a luxurious empty diet of made to taste food, while we sell out on the little boy's dream of adventure, in order to play life through a set game that is interactive with capitalism.
Trapped in a prison in our own minds, we perhaps have come to inherit this by the inevitable of ending up in a prison if conformity is not followed. So we play the game by the rules, and stay in one box of thinking to play our various games. We have all kinds of rules to follow and sports, with rules for every game, and we get addicted to a routine and running by a clock. Yes, we have out dream and image too. The ancestral connections within us all, seem to be kicking in, with end result of a tribal voice that can emerge. A dance towards the deepest inner realizations from going deeply within. From cross checking everything, and creating double the defence mechanisms, no-one goes into that inner world of our hallowed minds. Micro sorcery to the max, and enjoying it! We get to know ourselves to be gods of our own domain. Our own limits is our own imagination perhaps is the only thing that limits the dream. Everyone has or is happy with certain aspects of the self, for we tell ourselves that we are so. Surrounding ourselves with the people who agree with us, gets the support we all seek with our supporters and friends.
Our work, our individual specialized language of our chosen fields, our homes, mobile phones, net, mobility and diversity of intellectually protected rights to our own inherit part of ownership of the system. We have target marketed ourselves to create the "who that we want to be". We made the current flavour of the millennium of going inwards, with the image of the successful person in an outward world. Playing the game of life has its rewards of the bigger boy with his bigger toys!
Sooner or later, we must justify to ourselves the reason why we must conform to the world and its laws, as our very own reason for existence. There is nothing real in any of it, only the value we have placed on it. The rest of it is societies make believe story allowed to be imposed on us in order to play the game of living in a false world. The inner world of our imagination collectively gone wild, keeping the mind full of trivia, we have forgotten who it is we are.
We are gods manifest, and we give all our power away. We each have cellular memory, DNA memories, and even ancestral memories. We have probed that deeply within, that our inner god has begun to awaken. Unfortunately, it looks for what is real in an imaginary world made through our own micro sorcery. Personally, methinks the whole thing is sorcery done by ourselves to ourselves. Being a participant in our own play has meant some modifications to the script. By ourselves playing the parts.
The realization to go outwards began for me when I pulled apart the matrix of the games we all play. Playing the full gamut of life and tasting it all; has shown me myself.b I began to experiment with healing and travelled from traditional to alternative to shamanic, to indigenous. Yes, I even experimented with entheogens, religion and philosophy, and mysticism. I put together my own dreams then dis-assembled them many times. All my dreams in this life, were realized as I danced them out.
The relationship with country never left me since I was born. It always was my first love, even before my own mother in my mind taking refuge in nature, not my mothers arms. My first memories were of Mother Nature and my first love was of her. I always loved to explore the country I lived in, along with walking it. My anger and pain came from becoming separated from 'my early farm' when very young, and never being able to find that 'energy' again when we moved away.
I never stopped exploring country wherever I ended up living; either in Australia, New Zealand, or Canada. I tried to go bush in all of these countries when I could. I introduced some fun elements of exploring with my own children, whether hills in Kamloops, skiing, or exploring mountain streams in the Kananaskis Mountain range of the Rockies. I did try and align them to have their own relationship to Mother Earth.
Once the connection with aborigines in Australia was made just over a decade ago now, my whole world perspective began to change. After 29 years spent in Canada, I returned to Australia with eyes wide open. A new education bargain on the back of having to deal personally with the consequences that these people have had to bear due to ancestors coming to know them and then stealing their land after fragmenting their families in every which way, from genocide to stolen kids taken elsewhere to live. Horrible consequences beyond the pale of this writing. That my relationship withstood the ravages of grog talk, is amazing as I look back over the last decade.
As I have lived and become more and more a part of the goori family in the Bunjalung, it has begun to dawn just how interconnected country is with culture. As the country has come to know me where I now reside, she has begun to teach me, and talk to me in her own way, giving me thoughts as I walk the land with a 'conscious Mother'. I know it is "She" and that She is gradually opening the door for my outward journey to go further. She has begun to show me what is truly real for me in learning to be grounded into the conscious country and to listen real carefully to her voice. She is showing me how blended culture is with country with the goori's who think and talk for her, and intimately know her flows of energy.
When I am exploring like a big boy, the country in the last month, it was in an aware and awake way. I knew the thoughts that formed in my mind were from the country, for I allowed them to come in my mind, and to flow through me as if my own. Country speaking through the flow of my own thoughts coming from just walking the country. It was neat for me to realize that country did not need an interpreter or translator, and that she could teach as directly as "She" did. I made the realization that just from walking country, that was as conscious as myself, and that hard wired communication could be had.
Much of my realizations in the bush come from my questioning my own outward journey compared to the journey had from going within. It is only through my own wrestling with my own inner alignment back to the reality of country herself. With the culture and folk lore the stories bring, for this part of the world, a whole new perspective on my own country is gradually coming forward.
I am writing the outward journey compared to the inner one that I am used to, to being a circle over a square. The circle of learning what exists around me in the bush or from the horizon to horizon reality of country showing herself to me, compared to the boxed thinking that I am used to from societal conditioning. It is learning from a circle over a square outer reality, and seeing the mirror of the outer reflecting my own inner world. It is the identifying my own misalignment's, with the reality of what I have been finding out in country 'herself'/ With the culture and folk lore the stories bring, for this part of the world, a whole new perspective on my own country, is gradually coming forward.

It is the identifying my own misalignment's, with the reality of what I am finding in country. It is learning to put things back into a flow of natural energy coming from nature herself, over the artificial world of laws that take away from such natural flow.
The flow goes from inner to outer and from outer to inner, and the comparisons between the two in a self reflecting way. It is learning to be gods of our own domain admittedly from being in diapers or nappies, the right way. In relationship with country herself so that our own DNA can re-align to the natural flow of energy from the outer world of nature. By walking it, and allowing such healing to occur, I open myself to the truth of the Oneness of everything so that true magic is allowed to be seeded into my very soul. It is thereby an opening to new perspectives and possibilities of what can be found in a very real way of what is, and always 'will be'.
I get to see the inner and the outer, and how well the alignment has been adjusted. It is taking the fixed view for a more fluid one, so that by giving myself permission to be flexible, allowing country to be the same to me. Allowing fixed nature of things to become fluid again. Allowing my own choice to reflect the best of myself over the worst. It is allowing myself to move beyond my own judgements and controls to move to a higher level beyond our own dualities. As we learn this collectively, our 'god' like consciousness becomes activated for tribal voice and tribal mind to begin to reappear through universal imagery reflected both to our inner world from a true outer reality. It then changes the square thinking to a flowing circle. That is the message to me for the moment in my New Dreamtime world I have now begun.
